| | | Congratulations Chris, This is a tremendous improvement. I wonder whether interior is really necessary. Personally I would be satisfied with a better-than-current exterior. May be the cost in display time is negligeable compared to a whole minifig. (...) (22 years ago, 28-Apr-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

| | | | | More accurate hand? (was Re: Work-in-progress improved minifig arm) —Ryan Farrington
|
| | | | I wonder if it would be worth it to re-make the minifig hands too. The hand should tilt away from the hand "stem" at an angle of about 15 degrees. Right now, to get the correct angle of the hand to the arm, the hand has to be tilted so the solids (...) (22 years ago, 29-Apr-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

| | | | | Sorry, all, :] I forgot Steve Bliss already briefly mentioned redoing the hand, so ignore anything in my post that sounds like I'm the only one who ever thought of it. :) But since the arm has now gotten attention from Chris Dee (thanks, Chris!), I (...)

I think I measured it at 17 degrees once, but I might have mis-measured (or be misremembering). Or maybe Tore told me that was the (...) (22 years ago, 30-Apr-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

| | | | | | | (...) Well, at first glance, using a spear as pointer, it looked like 17 degrees to me also. However, I did the following and came up with 14.5 degrees: 1. Lay a minifig up next to a piece of paper, with the hand in the up position and a spear in (...) (22 years ago, 30-Apr-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

| | | | | | | | is BOX5.DAT really BFC compliant? —Kyle McDonald
|
| | | | | | I've been working on the BFC code in my application, and well, either I need to go to bed now (which is probably true either way :) or the BOX5.DAT primitive slipped into the last update with wrong-way wound quad.

In the default view, you will actually be looking at the backside of this quad. Imagine being under the primitive, and (...) (22 years ago, 30-Apr-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

My opinion is, in this case, logic should prevail over continuity, and the hook-hand should be given a rational orientation. (...) (22 years ago, 2-May-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
